Basic Listening Lesson 30

最近压力好大，我也是，我们应该去喝酒放松一下。可是我们明天还有工作要做呢。别去想这些，我说今天我们就是喝酒放松。

 

A: "Hey Mike. What are you doing tonight?"

B: "Nothing planned. How about you?"

A: "Work is kicking my ass¹. I'm so stressed. Let's go grab a drink."

B: "I'm always up for a drink. To tell you the truth, it's been quite stressful here too."

A: "I say we get drunk tonight. I don't want to think about all this stuff."

B: "But we have to work tomorrow."

A: "We won't stay out too late. I just need to forget about work."

B: "I hear ya. Let's do it."

 

1 ass   

n.驴；傻瓜，蠢笨的人

参考例句：

• He is not an ass as they make him.他不象大家猜想的那样笨。
• An ass endures his burden but not more than his burden.驴能负重但不能超过它能力所负担的。
